Benefits of technology

The invention is a healthcare device that combines the functions of non-glaring illumination, air circulation, and air purification to eliminate harmful substances like viruses, bacteria, and odors. The device works at atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature, and features a layer of filter cover that contains substances to improve air quality. The air in the device flows out readily, and cooler ambient air flows in to replace the heated air that has flown out. The invention is efficient in using the full range of electromagnetic radiation from any light source and promotes physical and mental health and social well-being of people in its surrounding.

Problems solved by technology

Until now, other potentials of the lamps are not fully utilized.
The incandescent lamp is energy inefficient converting only 4-6% of electricity into illumination.
But they are not fabric lamps for illumination functions as well.

Embodiment Construction

[0044]FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a healthcare cum optimal illumination device according to a basic embodiment of this invention. In FIG. 1, the healthcare cum optimal illumination device includes at least one frame 12, at least one light source 26, and at least one layer of filter cover 24. The light source 26 is disposed in a cavity of the frame 12, and the light source 26 emits infrared radiation, visible light radiation, and ultraviolet radiation. The visible radiation is used for illumination, and the invisible infrared radiation and the ultraviolet radiation are harnessed to improve indoor air quality. The at least one layer of the filter cover 24 is treated with substances of air cleaning properties and encloses the frame 12. The treated filter cover 24 is with at least one opening where air in the frame 12 heated by the infrared radiation flows out readily from the device and cooler ambient air surrounding the device is drawn through the treated filter cover 24 int...

Abstract

This invention provides a healthcare cum optimal illumination device. The inventive device includes at least one frame, at least one light source, and at least one layer of treated filter cover. The light source is disposed in the frame. The light source emits infrared radiation, visible light radiation, and ultraviolet radiation. The visible radiation is used for illumination, and the invisible infrared and ultraviolet radiation is harnessed to improve indoor air quality. The layer of the filter cover is treated with substances of air cleaning properties and encloses the frame. The treated filter cover has at least one opening where air in the frame heated by the infrared radiation flows out from the device and cooler ambient air surrounding the device is drawn through the filter cover into the frame replacing the heated air that has flown out of the device to form air circulation and to perform air purification.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This present application is a Continuation-in-part Application of PCT application No. PCT / SG2010 / 000167 filed on Apr. 26, 2010; the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]1. Field of the Invention[0003]This invention relates to an illumination device and, more particularly, to an air purifying healthcare cum optimal illumination device with optimal energy utilization.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]Electric lamps are mainly used for illumination and decorating purposes since Thomas Edison invented the first incandescent bulb in 1879. Until now, other potentials of the lamps are not fully utilized.[0006]The incandescent lamp is energy inefficient converting only 4-6% of electricity into illumination. The energy saving fluorescent lamp is much more energy efficient converting about 20% of electricity into visible light radiation and the remainder into invisible and unutilized infr...
